Behavioral Technical

The interview process was pretty straightforward. It involved a single phone screening followed by another interview. The interviews focused on behavioral questions, like asking about a challenge I faced and how I overcame it, or a situation where I worked as part of a team. They also asked some questions about my background and resume.

Behavioral Technical Group

I interviewed for Textron's GSE program. It started with a 30-minute phone call with a recruiter. Then, there was a 30-minute group panel with the management team. They really dug into my resume and wanted to hear about all my engineering projects. They seemed to prefer candidates with passion projects over just classroom assignments, always asking if something was done for a class or just for fun. It was a bit disappointing to get two rejection notices, one saying the position was canceled and another saying someone else was chosen. The lack of clear communication really affected my experience.

My interview was way more chill than others. It started with a recruiter call about logistics, no real questions. Then, a 30-minute online interview with basic behavioral questions. Honestly, it was the best interview experience I've had, and they kept me updated well afterward.

I had a phone call and then a virtual video call. The person who did the phone screen seemed to be on different page than the manager who did the video call. They never followed up after I reached out multiple times, which I found to be unprofessional.

  • Can you explain how your previous experiences connect with the requirements of this role?
